Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows a 10 by 10 grid. A non-right triangle is enclosed within the grid. The first vertex is at the top of row 2 and the right of column 6. The second vertex is at the top of row 10 and the right of column 1. The third vertex is at the bottom of row 10 and the right of column 9.

What is the area of the non-right triangle? The base and height are found by counting the squares. Do not round your answer.

(1 point)
The area is
a
square units.

The base of the triangle is 9 squares and the height is 8 squares.

Therefore, the area of the triangle is:
Area = (1/2) * base * height
Area = (1/2) * 9 * 8
Area = 36 square units

So, the area of the non-right triangle is 36 square units.

i think the answer is not a whole number

Apologies for the mistake. Let's reevaluate the area calculation.

The base of the triangle is 6 squares and the height is 9 squares.

Therefore, the area of the triangle is:
Area = (1/2) * base * height
Area = (1/2) * 6 * 9
Area = 27 square units

So, the area of the non-right triangle is 27 square units.

the answer is not 24 32 36

To find the area of the triangle, we first need to determine the base and height of the triangle.

The base of the triangle is 8 squares (distance from column 6 to column 9) and the height is 9 squares (distance from row 2 to row 10).

Now, we can calculate the area of the triangle:
Area = (1/2) * base * height
Area = (1/2) * 8 * 9
Area = 36 square units

Therefore, the area of the non-right triangle is 36 square units.

NO THAT IS NOT IT! GET THE ANSWER RIGHT

I apologize for the oversight. Let's reevaluate the calculation carefully.

Base of the triangle = 3 squares (distance from column 6 to column 9)
Height of the triangle = 8 squares (distance from row 2 to row 10)

Now, we can calculate the area of the triangle:
Area = (1/2) * base * height
Area = (1/2) * 3 * 8
Area = 12 square units

Therefore, the area of the non-right triangle is 12 square units. Thank you for your patience.
